How To Grease YZ125 Linkage Bearings

Hey y'all, thought I'd make a video showing the process to grease lshock linkage bearings on a Yamaha YZ125. This process should more or less be the same for most model years, bike shown is a 2018.

Hi mate love watching your channel. I am sure you get sent a lot of questions etc…. But i wanted to ask if you could provide a small clip on how you would go about greasing your swing arm bearings. I learn alot from your detailed clips and would appreciate it if you could provide any info. Keep up the good work 👍 Jamie

Nice video, but in the Yamaha manual for a (23’ YZ250) it specifies to torque the bolts in the following order: upper shock bolt if not already torqued, then Connecting Arm (Frame side), Connecting Arm (Relay arm side), relay arm (bolt in swing arm with plugs), then the lower shock bolt last. I always tell folks to be sure to read their specific manual for the correct sequence.

Got the 23 yz125 myself. What section does it list the sequence?

Hey man ik this is not related to this vid but. I split the case on my 2001 yz 125 and I can get it to go back to gether but it puts the engine in a bond

Really check for missing washers or parts. Use parts diagrams. Is it binding at the crank? Then it may not be totally pressed or centered in the bearings. If it’s the trans, it’s likely a washer or piece out of place. Something simple like a bearing not fully pressed in can also cause binding, and double check that you have the right bearings in the right locations.
